    So much respect for Neil always being a student. Even when he was considered a GOAT, he still practiced and studied. He is DEFINITELY one of the best EVER!

    Neil, the GOAT of drumming, the Professor of the drum kit. Drummers use metronomes, metronomes use Neil Peart! Attended 12 of their shows and had the pleasure of working backstage for one! Fan since 1980!!

    Neil playing way out of his comfort zone in the swing/jazz genre in this tribute to the incomparable Buddy Rich. No easy job, yet Neil nails it. What else would one expect from one of the best to ever sit behind a kit.

  • @compnnburns8831
    @compnnburns8831 11 місяців тому +9

    the tears just sprung out of me as soon as he started his signature cowbells, so great to see him at his prime and still so sad to think he was taken away from us so early having lived a very clean and healthy and hard working musician's life compared to his peers.

  • @lisaharrison1031

    I play drums and I’m in my early 50’s… Seen Rush 17 times. NP was an idol of mine. I once met him in a breakfast restaurant in 1997 in upstate NY. I knew he was shy but felt I wanted to meet him. I paid my bill and as I passed by his table said, “Hello” he said hello back I said “I’m sorry to bother but wanted to thank you for years of music and inspiration.”He said, “your welcome enjoy your morning…. “
    I miss him so much. Thanks for the reaction and review

    You'd be hard pressed to ever find a performance where Neil Peart ever missed a single beat, flip, or stroke of any roll, fill, whatever. What a frigging beast.

    Rush fan here. This was from the Buddy Rich Tribute concert. Buddy Rich's daughter called Neil to head up the show at her late father's request. Buddy told her next to me, this is the best there is. This kit was a stripped down Jazz/Swing kit for the show with a NP logo in the same place the BR logo would have been on Buddy's Kit. The band in the back is Buddy's band at the time of his last show before he died. Believe it or not Neil was disappointed in his play. Steve Smith the former Journey drummer was part of the tribute, and Neil told Steve how much is drumming had improved since the last time the saw each other drum. Steve said he took lessons from jazz drummer Freddie Gruber, so Neil (who was already considered by many as the best) took lessons from Freddie and got even better. By the time he did the solo for the 40th tour, he very seldom flipped to the fat side of the sticks anymore.

  • @priestofsyrinx6681
    @priestofsyrinx6681 9 місяців тому +1

    Neil manages to make so much sound from such a limited number of pieces (in this particular set). I love how he always changes the tempo and feel of the solo, like it's telling the story of a person on an adventure encountering different things. A Neil Peart drum solo isn't just a drum solo, it's a story.

  • @patcandelora8496
    @patcandelora8496 10 місяців тому +2

    This took a lot of guts for Neil to step out of his element and do this! So many other drummer swith jazz backgrounds and better swing. That said he is still my all time favorite! The man was fearless!

  • @peteb9292

    The crowd blew up at the cowbell segment because that's a piece he's used in live Rush drum solos since the 70s. Rush fans know the cowbell part pretty much as well as Tom Sawyer.

    Rush allowed Neil to express himself without any restrictions. Red Barchetta was a favourite, I would play it endlessly ...or at least until the neighbours called the cops.

  • @jeffknoch8682
    @jeffknoch8682 10 місяців тому

    I started playing drums at 16 or 17yrs old in 1980 or 81 RUSH and Neil became my #1 influence and a big part of my drum thinking. I did not try to be a Neil Peart clone but learned how to think some what like him but also explore and try different things. I have come up with some things that sound like but slightly different than Neil and some things I have never heard anyone else do although someone on earth probably has. It is funny but Neil looked a lot like my brother Bill in his 30's and 40's. I also build custom drum sets for part of my living and have written well over 1000 poems and did 7 poetry CDs and 2 comedy CDs. I have around 100 original songs but still need to record them. Only sang a few parts on CD to remember them. Neil also influenced some of my writing. I wrote a lot about conflicts with in human nature and the problem of evil and mental illness of many kinds. 1 RUSH song helped me finish a poem 1 year after I wrote the fist half.

    A rush conert has more air drumming than an army . 1979 i picked up the sticks as a 12 year old kid never looked back. Neil was my hero and inspiration. I've always said if i could get half as good as he was i would feel like ive done it. My parents were very supportive. With a 10 piece ludwig kit in my bedroom i tried to bust the heads.

    Yes I have been to concerts since high school when I saw Jimi in 1967. Cream on their Wheels of Fire tour and Led Zeppelin at the Forum.
    I have grown fond of Neal Peart, however I have never seen Rush live. I don’t like to rank anyone but I would throw Ginger Baker, Neal Peart and John Bonham in the mix.
    With Rush it was Alex Lifeson on guitar with their debut album on 8-track that blew my mind.
    Just sayin’
    I love guitar mastery foremost but I appreciate musicianship at all levels. Whatever tickles my ears.
    Thanks for the early Neal Peart video!
